This template offers the choice to define the uniqueness category of an (item) article. It can also automatically categorize a page under that category.

An item is unique when it cannot be found twice in the same adventure.

Parameters

  1. Whether or not unique (no parameter name and value is case insensitive):
    • no
    • yes
    • any other (non)empty value defaults to: unknown
  • nocat: Whether or not to suppress categorization under the chosen category (defaults to false, which means auto categorization).


Note: eventhough the name of this template implies a default value of "yes", leaving the parameter empty or out resolves to "unknown" instead.

Syntax

{{Infobox Item/unique|value}}

Examples

Common use includes the only parameter with either values "yes" or "no":

{{Infobox Item/unique|yes}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|no}}
Yes [list all]
No [list all]


The case of the value is not important:

{{Infobox Item/unique|YES}}
Yes [list all]


You may leave "unique" undefined (which would raise the Items of unknown uniqueness maintenance task) by not specifying any valid value, so these all have the same result:

{{Infobox Item/unique}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|yeah}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|true}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|aye, it's unqiue!}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|whatever}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|nope?}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|false}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|null}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|zero}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|extraordinary}}
{{Infobox Item/unique|not}}
unknown [list all]


The nocat parameter may be used to suppress automatic categorization like this (any value will do):

{{Infobox Item/unique|yes|nocat=true}}

This would render the same result as the first example above, but would not automatically categorize under Category:Unique items. This feature works both on valid values and the maintenance task mentioned above.
